Requirements
To use lead form assets, make sure that you have:
- A good history of policy compliance.
- A Google Ads account in an eligible vertical or sub-vertical. Sensitive verticals or sub-verticals (for example, sexual content) aren't eligible for lead forms.
- A privacy policy for your business. When you create a lead form asset in Google Ads, you need to provide a link to your privacy policy. The privacy policy appears at the end of the lead form.
In addition, if you’re adding a lead form asset to a Video or Display campaign, or you're creating a Search campaign where the ad's headline directly opens to a lead form, you’ll need:
- More than $50,000 AUD total spend in Google Ads. For advertisers whose accounts are managed in currencies other than AUD, your spend amount will be converted to AUD using the average monthly conversion rate for that currency.
- Reputable advertisers spending more than $1,000 per account (or more than $15,000 across all accounts) may also be eligible to use these formats subject to further verification of account status and good standing. Advertisers must complete the advertiser verification program. Learn more About verification.
Image requirements in lead forms
All images used in advertising must meet certain quality standards. The image layout must conform to Google Ads standards and the image itself can’t be blurry. See the Image quality policy for more information.
